Staff Engineer, Choco

At Choco, I have had had several one on one meetings with my managers where I am able to sit and speak freely about my progress and any challenges I have faced. They do not sugar coat anything, they treat me with respect and are very honest about how I am doing. I feel very comfortable sharing my opinions about anything to my bosses. This communication is all around the office as well, everyone is always open to discuss anything and take our ideas seriously. Overall, it is a phenomenal fun place to work where everybody is truly transparent.

I have only been here about a month and a half and so far any of the work I have done has been greatly appreciated. All my achievements have been applauded and acknowledged by my managers and peers. They value success here and they will do anything in their power to help me get to succeed.

During my one on ones with my managers or peers, I always come out learning something. They are always very productive meetings and there are a lot of sessions accessible to us that we can join to learn about different fields. Everyone is always learning and the office is always buzzing with new ideas.

An incredible operations team who works hard every single day. They build genuine relationships with every interaction they make. So blessed to be working at Choco.

Choco is an extremely diverse community. You get to meet people from all over the world. Working alongside these incredible people is what makes Choco such a special place to work at.

Choco prides themselves on being a very transparent company. Your opinions matter and are recognized. Every single employee plays a pivotal part in making this company what it is now because of how transparent we are with one another.

I started at Choco 2 years ago working with our go-to-market teams, moving from city to city to work directly with chefs (our userbase!!). In just a short period of time, I have made a total career transition to work in the Talent space with the help of supportive managers, autonomous practices, and dynamic people.

Ownership is one of our core values. That starts with the freedom to own the work you do, the projects you're a part of, and ultimately find the work style that suits you best. No micromanagers.

One of our other core values is Team. Team-first, team-focused. There is nothing more important than our team if we want to create a local, yet global value system. This is felt at all levels starting from the top.
